Notes - From the Journal of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, Volume 35, Part 2: Edward Miner Adams was born in Pittsburgh, PA, July 19, 1868 and went to Crestline, Ohio, when two years of age. He had only a common school education, being obliged to work in the Pennsylvania Railroad shows when thirteen years old. Here he learned boiler making and the coppersmith's trade. Later he went to Bucyrus, Ohio, where he was employed by the Thompson Steam Shovel Company as machinist. In 1892 he moved to Akron, Ohio, and worked as machinist with the Akron Machine Company. After three years he accepted an offer from the American Cereal Company, later the Quaker Oats Company, and in 1898 attained the position of machine shop foreman. In the same year he was made chief engineer in addition to other duties, a position he retained until the time of his death on April 17, 1913. Mr. Miner was president of the Ohio Society of Mechanical Electrical and Steam Engineers, having been chosen to serve a second term; also a member of the Akron Chamber of Commerce.
